Can't wait till 6.7.1 comes along so I can get back to adding mod's :x...

I'm not a programmer, but after this:

spellcheck_enable => {
type => "checkbox",
values => [qw(yes no)],
default => q!yes!,
req => 0,
final_code => sub { return "FIXME"; },
},

spellcheck_width => {
type => "text",
length => 20,
default => q!500!,
req => 0,
},
spellcheck_height => {
type => "text",
length => 20,
default => q!625!,
req => 0,
}

Shouldn't there be a "," after the last brace?

I mean, there was one after the last brace of the "post count" section that was already there...

Just curious.

You're correct, there should be a comma even if it's the last item.

I wasn't tring to be a nitpicker... just trying to help.

Works great on 6.6 you just have to remember to drop out the public_topic_page.pl steps since theres no stock quick reply. I didnt have much luck last night getting it working with the 6.6 quick reply hack either it kept making the quick reply part hide itself. If somebody could show me what I need to change to make it work?

your best bet is to look in the 6.5 version of this mod and follow the quick reply code

I will try it later tonight.

This work for 6.7.1 ?

Gizzy's remark about waiting has be skeerd and i forgot how much my members kant spell!

Nevermind, Im tarded this morning .. if you havn't noticed my time stamps Ive been at this alllll night

Demo board is 6.7.1 so I guess that means yes ... I hope

He was asking about 6.6; it works fine on 6.7.

I installed this mod and think it's great! However, I did notice what seems to be a limitation in spell checking very long posts.

According to the word/character counter, the spell checker would only spell check 4096 words of a 5073 word post. Then, if you do make corrections to any mistakes it will replace the entire orginal post with it's 4096 word copy thus deleting the other 977 words. Is there any way to fix this? Much thanks in advance...

not broken, you are actually warned in the spell checker

What he means is, the issue is with the spell check people. It may be possible there's a paid version that will accept larger posts, but this version has the limit you see

Thanks for the update but I looked all over and maybe I am blind, but I don't see that warning anywhere when I click spell check.

The warning is when you use the service - it tells you you have X number of words and they only support x number. It is still a spell check issue, nothing we can do about it.

There was another company advertising its services in the chit chat forum, you might wanna check them out if you want the advantage of a paid service.

Hi everyone,

I am running into a problem with this mod and thought maybe you gurus can help a girl out:

I just installed this mod but I am getting this error (I also installed the CPMod):

Can't locate object method "post" via package "LWP::UserAgent" at D:WebSitesCityofLincolnParkMIcgi-binubb_spell.cgi line 98, chunk 64.
For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error. [Wed Jul 28 14:10:38 2004] D:WebSitesCityofLincolnParkMIcgi-binubb_spell.cgi: Can't locate object method "post" via package "LWP::UserAgent" at D:WebSitesCityofLincolnParkMIcgi-binubb_spell.cgi line 98, chunk 64.

Had the same issue tonight. It's because the LWP::Useragent pm isn't installed with your version of perl.

Go here:

http://search.cpan.org/src/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.69/lib/LWP/UserAgent.pm

Download that file, create a directory in your ubb's cgi folder like this:

Modules/LWP

and upload that useragent file. You should be ok then

Will this work with 6.5?

Only 6.7 and the earthquake edition... I believe there's one for 6.5 tho, check search

Hello

I added this one on 6.7.1 it works fine but the button shows as a small blank button and I can't find it's setting or whatever should be for this mod on the control panel
Any ideas?

Make sure the Wordlets Mod is installed, and that the steps pertaining to vars_wordlets_mods.cgi have been done

I have modified that file but what's the wordlet mod?

6.6 - 6.7 Modification Wordlets

Thanks

So this mod is a spelling check service from spellcheck.net , nice banners

The mod uses their services; as such it goes by their guidelines; hence any advertising they choose to display

...

I swear I'm not getting a penny from that, and I'm certain brett isn't too

The adsense code is there from spellcheck.net; I mean we are wasting their BW, may as well display their adsense lol...

I can not find vars_wordlets_mods.cgi

Where, what? How do I get this?

Oop, I'm getting better at this! I fixed it myself ha ha ha.. um. But how do I make the button for my spell check be an actual button that says spell check, right now its just something you click on and some of my members will not know what that is.

If you have the Wordlets_Mods modification installed you should see this as "Spell Check"

I do and it still didn't show up

After you apply the vars_wordlets_mods modification are you adding the asspociated lines FROM the spellcheck modification into vars_wordlets_mods.cgi?

this is my issue:

http://hogwartsbynight.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=newtopic;f=38

I know what the issue is, your description was perfect there; the problem is that, for some reason, your forum isn't reading the wordlet, either the wordlet step was skipped, not preformed properly, or the vars_wordlets_mod wasn't installed (the vars_wordlets_mod is required for the wordlets of this mod to function properly)

Quoting the install instructions

Code

*******************************
* Open vars_wordlets_mods.cgi *
*******************************

Find:
=====

%vars_wordlets_mods = (

Add below:
==========

	q~spell_check~ => q~Spell Check~,
	q~spell_check_fix~ => q~Correct Text in UBB™ Form~,
	q~spell_check_text~ => q~SpellCheck Text~,
	q~spell_check_misspelled_words~ => q~There are misspelled words in the text body:~,
	q~spell_check_misspelled_step1~ => q~Select a suggested word from the pull down box for each misspelled word below~,
	q~spell_check_misspelled_step2~ => q~Then press the %%CORRECT%% button at the bottom of the page~,
	q~spell_check_spelled_correctly~ => q~No spelling errors were found in this text.~,
	q~spell_check_no_text~ => q~Enter your text to spellcheck. (Up to 5000 characters)~,
	q~spell_check_close~ => q~Close~,

I opened the file again, I added all of those to the wordlet mod file, its still not showing up. I went through the files to double check.

my file:

%vars_wordlets_mods = (
q~spell_check~ => q~Spell Check~,
q~spell_check_fix~ => q~Correct Text in UBBô Form~,
q~spell_check_text~ => q~SpellCheck Text~,
q~spell_check_misspelled_words~ => q~There are misspelled words in the text body:~,
q~spell_check_misspelled_step1~ => q~Select a suggested word from the pull down box for each misspelled word below~,
q~spell_check_misspelled_step2~ => q~Then press the %%CORRECT%% button at the bottom of the page~,
q~spell_check_spelled_correctly~ => q~No spelling errors were found in this text.~,
q~spell_check_no_text~ => q~Enter your text to spellcheck. (Up to 5000 characters)~,
q~spell_check_close~ => q~Close~,
q!mod_wordlets! => q!Modifications Wordlets!,
);
1;

Go to ultimatebb.cgi
Before "if ($ubb eq '') {" type:

Code

use vars ("%vars_wordlets_mods");
%vars_wordlets_mods = (
	q~spell_check~ => q~Spell Check~,	q~spell_check_fix~ => q~Correct Text in UBB™ Form~,	q~spell_check_text~ => q~SpellCheck Text~,	q~spell_check_misspelled_words~ => q~There are misspelled words in the text body:~,	q~spell_check_misspelled_step1~ => q~Select a suggested word from the pull down box for each misspelled word below~,	q~spell_check_misspelled_step2~ => q~Then press the %%CORRECT%% button at the bottom of the page~,	q~spell_check_spelled_correctly~ => q~No spelling errors were found in this text.~,	q~spell_check_no_text~ => q~Enter your text to spellcheck. (Up to 5000 characters)~,	q~spell_check_close~ => q~Close~,
);

Also make sure you uploaded vars_wordlets_mods.cgi to the same directory as your other vars_wordlets files.

That seemed to do the trick LK, thanks.. lol now if I could get hit hack to work. Newbies.. don't you want to strangle me.
